The article offers a deep dive into the thematic and stylistic connections between La Jetée and 12 Monkeys , emphasizing the role of memory, time, and fate in shaping both narratives. The key takeaway for me is how both films use innovative storytelling techniques— La Jetée with its still images and 12 Monkeys with its chaotic, surreal approach—to explore complex ideas of time and identity. Watching these films reminded me of the power of visual storytelling and how different methods (still shots, fragmented narratives) can be used to evoke emotion and provoke thought. This insight will be incredibly helpful in my own short film process. It reinforces the importance of visual style in conveying abstract themes and how a non-linear structure can create a unique emotional experience. I’ll focus on how the arrangement of images and the flow of time can reinforce the emotional core of my narrative.
Hello blog, I’ll be reflecting on the music video today. Enjoy the inside of my thoughts I possibly left out in other blogs. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues? In my group's production we picked the song ‘Young dumb and broke’. Our instructure gave us free creativity with our songs, though to not follow along with the songs lyrics completely or copy the artist's existing video. I thought about this for a long idea and my partner and I shot ideas at each other. Though when it actually came to planning and creating the story board it felt rushed and over procrastinated. That's what can explain the missing storyline or lack of overall social group or issue. The genre of the songs is R&B which is often a sequence of khalid's movie in which i researched getting more inspiration for the music video. Though I still felt like something was missing, I had no creative ideas for the actual video that me...
Hello blog, so I wanna talk about editing today. When editing clips I personally filmed. I started with changing the rotation. so if it was filmed horizontally by accident I changed it in my simple iPhone editing to vertically. I have not been able to completely watch the video, because my partner has not let me view the edits she’s made officially. But when I am able to completely watch it. I hope to take out extra unnecessary clips and or clips that may have repetitive angles. Though there is no fundamental storyline, I want the angles, and editing to support the song. The visual appeal I’m following is that of one summer vibe, when looking at a previously filmed Khalid song she often uses filters over them changing lighting. I also want to do that because the time the song was produced aligns with the aesthetic of other music video videos. Some creative angles I've shot or pitched can be seen throughout. My personal favorite was my and my partner's first film...
